Brigham City, UT (May 25, 2021) – Two people are dead and another victim is in serious condition after a car crash occurred on Interstate 15 in Brigham City Tuesday evening, May 25.
Per reports from authorities, a passenger car with three individuals was traveling southbound through Brigham City around 5:00 p.m. when the driver swerved to avoid tire debris left in the road. They lost control as a result, causing their vehicle to strike a pole.
The driver, identified only as an adult male, died at the scene. A female passenger in the front seat was airlifted to a hospital but succumbed to her injuries.
The passenger in the back seat also sustained serious injuries and was airlifted to an area medical center, where they remain in critical condition.
The southbound lanes of the freeway were closed while officers investigated.
Our deepest condolences go out to the families of the deceased victims. Our thoughts are with the injured victim and their family at this time. We hope for their full recovery.
Traffic accidents happen on Utah streets and highways every day. In 2018, over 62,000 collisions took place statewide, claiming the lives of 260 victims and causing injury to 25,645 more.
These figures underscore just how unsafe driving can be. The injuries you sustain, whether minor or critical, could permanently cost you your ability to do many of the things you take for granted, like your ability to make a living, your good health, and your capacity to enjoy life.
The economic hardship created by hospital bills, lost wages, and more can quickly become unmanageable and overwhelming, making it imperative that you speak with a personal injury attorney shortly after your accident if you plan on seeking financial compensation.
When victims are injured in accidents caused by the negligence of other drivers, it is crucial that they seek legal guidance from a skilled and knowledgeable car accident attorney in Salt Lake City as soon as possible. When victims are harmed in collisions, through no fault of their own, they are often able to obtain compensation from wrongdoers to alleviate the financial costs they face for medical treatment, lost wages, property repairs, and a variety of other economic and non-economic damages.
